[test] don't leave NULL columns around when making an attribute required It doesn't matter on sqlite (it doesn't do ALTER COLUMN), but when running this test on postgresql it fails to add the 'NOT NULL' constraint otherwise.

[server/session] Roll back in connection exit This was changed in commit 8b35a898b334 "[server] remove cnxset tracking, it is now unneeded". When exiting a CubicWeb Connection, the database connection is put back into the common pool. At that point anything done during the lifetime of the CubicWeb Connection needs to be committed or rolled back. Do a proper rollback to finish the transaction, as was happening before the above-mentionned commit. This showed up on testing with postgresql, when a DB schema modification was blocked by an old connection that was still "in transaction".

[web/views/formrenderer] do not use `cubicweb:target` attribute on form (closes #5534074) The `cubicweb:target` is a flag indicating that the form data (with file input) shall be posted inside an iframe - this is a well known "ajax-like" workaround to post files with browsers that do not support `FormData` (a.k.a IE<10). The `cubicweb:target` was introduced when CW used the "xhtml strict" doctype. Now that CW uses the "html5" doctype, this namespaced attribute is no longer necessary and the iframe can be generated directly. Before this patch, CW inserts the `cubicweb:target` attribute in the form DOM element (server side) and `setFormsTarget()` updates the DOM with a new `<iframe>` element (client side). Now, CW inserts the `<iframe>` DOM element directly (server side), making `setFormsTarget` useless.

[js] lint : make it explicit that typeof is an operator, not a function. Also, use === / !== except for null / undefined comparison

[devtools] qunit: show helpful data when an assertion fails Related to #5533333.

[web/test] Use shorter $() instead of jQuery() Consistency FTW. Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: use new async testing APIs http://qunitjs.com/cookbook/#asynchronous-callbacks QUnit keeps track of all the assert.async() objects created inside the test functions and expects all done() functions to be called. Failure to do so will result in the test being failed. Unlike .start and .stop which were internal APIs, assert.async() is stricter and fails tests if assert methods are used *after* all done() functions are called (see "test callback execution order"). Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: use new assert APIs test functions now accept an "assert" argument which exposes QUnit's assert methods: assert.{expect,equal,deepEqual,ok} Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: stop using global variables test -> QUnit.test module -> QUnit.module Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: update to 1.18.0 (closes #5533333) * the logging API has changed (register callbacks instead of setting attributes on the QUnit object) * the logging callbacks all have a single "details" object argument * the "main" div was renamed to "qunit-fixture" (this change is responsible for all the churn in our own JS test files) * QUnit can now build the DOM elements it needs for reporting from a single "qunit" div

[devtools] qunit: stop using deprecated assert functions equals -> equal same -> deepEqual Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: remove useless window.close() Modern browsers don't allow it anymore. Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: refactor functions into QUnitView Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: only start firefox once per test The separate profile initialization step doesn't seem necessary anymore. This was due to the system-wide installation of the "Sage" Firefox extensions which breaks -url on a fresh profile. Removing this obnoxious extension allows us to launch Firefox in a standard way. Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: decrease test timeout Related to #5533333.

[devtools] qunit: increase resolution and depth of Xvfb screen Related to #5533333.

[web/test] Always call QUnit.ok with a message Related to #5533333.

[web/test] Fix remaining JS tests (closes #5533303)

[web/test] Stop testing that exceptions raised in Deferred callbacks call errback They no longer do as of changeset 7f1f7f710b16. Related to #5533303.

[web/test] stop calling loadxhtml with a form.callback It was deprecated in 3.9 (changeset 7b9553a9db65) and removed in 3.18. Related to #5533303.

[web/test] Fix reset of loaded JS/CSS files Name changed in commit ede740bd7077. Related to #5533303.

[web/test] Use proper JSON syntax Related to #5533303.

[web/test] Update mock ajax reply from "render" ajaxfunc CubicWeb transforms add_js() calls in AJAX context to <cubicweb:script> tags since ede740bd7077 and cd5738fc440f. Related to #5533303.

[devtools] Serve JS tests over HTTP (closes #5533285) Instead of mixing file:// URLs with XHR.

[web/data] Support Deferred objects outside XHR JS tests actually use this. Related to #5533303.

merge 3.20.8 in 3.21

[views] Revert previous changeset 8f05aaabf355 Breaks cubicweb/web/test/test_views.py as some views don't have a 'vid' kwarg.

Added tag 3.20.8, debian/3.20.8-1, centos/3.20.8-1 for changeset ec284980ed9e

[pkg] Prepare 3.20.8

[js] simplify cw.log implementation There's no need to rebuild and array and join its content, just call console.log with ``arguments``. The only trick is that console.log must be called on a console instance.
